New Fireworks Stock Photos
Monday, July 5, 7:29 pm PST


Yesterday being the 4th of July, Independence Day, in the United States, I was able to photograph some fireworks. So today, I have posted 34 new fireworks stock photos. I was especially pleased as to how crisp and smooth the photos came out to be. Well, have a look through them yourself and let me know what you think! Click here to view our latest stock photos.

They're really pleasing to look at and I agree the photographs can out looking very smooth. You should make a desktop background of them all!

Wow, they're amazing. Wish I could take photos of fireworks that well, when I took some last November they all failed. :'D

Yeah, I tried to take some pictures of fireworks with my cell phone, and that did NOT work at all. Good job!

Usually Firework shots are hard to take... Good Job! They're awesome!

They are hard to take if you don't take them right. I used a tripod to get the pictures how they came out.

In my town, we have the 7th biggest firework display or somethin.  People come from all of the surrounding states to see it..  shakes the ground, people always have heart attacks and die, and the finale lights up the whole city for miles around like an atom bomb went off.  Problem is, I don't have a camera.  Cept for on my MBP...


Love them!  I saw some people taking photos of the fireworks..  they just kept the lens open until a big on popped up and then snapped it.  Guess thats what you have to do? o_O

What I do is set it up on a tripod and set the shutter for somewhere between 2-4 seconds. Some cameras even have a fireworks "scene" with preset settings.

I can't use a tripod, I just can't set them up or anything.

Heh, a camera we have that has the Fireworks setting isn't good. D:

It takes the picture with a longer delay... (Bad for fireworks >_>; ) and saving the image takes a long time also, since it seems to clean it up a bit to make it nicerish looking.

You take such wonderful pictures of fireworks!

The longer delay is the reason why you need the tripod. And it's necessary because it's dark. If you were to take a shot without the slower shutter speed, then you would get an image that is grainy and hard to see.

It also depends on the resolution of your camera... We saw some beautiful fireworks in LA and it was pretty
